22. What about osteoporosis?
Osteoporosis – a weakness of the bones - is particularly common in post-menopausal women. It can lead to fractures, especially if you fall. By keeping your joints mobile and improving your balance and muscle tone, we can minimize the risk of you falling. And we can also advise you on other treatments available.
23. I suffered a painful whiplash in a car accident. Can you help me?
Yes, we most certainly can. An awful lot of our patients first visit us because they’ve been in a crash.
24. Do you treat sports injuries?
Yes, lots. Typical examples include:
• Groin and Thigh strains
• Neck pain
• Shoulder sprains (rotator cuff injuries)
• Tendonitis
• Tennis elbow
• Sciatica.
Not only do we treat them; we help prevent them.
25. Can you help me improve my sporting performance?
Restoring optimum function to your body often results in better sporting performance.
26. Can you treat babies and children?
Yes – we can treat anyone from a newborn baby, to a centenarian. In fact, one of our chiropractors, Elisabeth Loeng, specialises in treating pregnant women, mothers and babies. The sooner your baby is checked for birth stresses and injuries the better. Later on, symptoms like colic, ear infections, learning difficulties, or frequent illness will often benefit from chiropractic.
27. Can you treat sciatica?
Yes.
28. Do you offer other complementary therapies?
Yes indeed. We have a leading practitioner of Podiatry (Chiropody) at Afon House. She also makes it easier to live comfortably. This can either complement chiropractic, or act as autonomous therapy. When you come in for your first consultation, you can discuss your needs with us.
